    Collectibles for Bean fans?
    Oh my, I saw these being auctioned at a site, but wondered about its authencity. It was said to be a vintage! I bet any Bean fans would love it. (But note that they're not cheap though)

    Bean Memo Pad:




    Bean water bottle:



    Bean (Teddy) Watch



    Bean (Teddy) Pencil Topper!



    Now it gives me the urge to bid on it. Heh Heh.

    Anyway, I had an unpleasant dream today. Shall not talk much into it as its just something plain unlucky and embarrassing. (How I wish I had dreamt of Rowan instead!! =P)

    Oh yeah, I had uploaded my screensaver onto Youtube yesterday. Interested parties may like to have a peek at it: (Personally I find it very adorable!)



    And something random:
    I have something up for sale on behalf of my sister. Its a 2-way jacket, (and VERY COOL!) available in S, M, L sizes. Interested party can leave a message at my tagboard OR email me at: Jingling963@hotmail.com

    $15 DOLLARS EACH ONLY!




    Project Pictures
    Received another email from the School Library to inform me that one of the DVDs (Mr Bean) is ready for collection already! =D~ I still have one more to collect, so I am waiting for another one! Hope it will be a quick one! =p

    Anyway, we had this photo-taking session yesterday at school, which is part of our project. What do you think? Professional enough or not? LOL. Those were taken using NIKON camera leh!
    Pictures in courtesy of Chloe's blog:

    (Sorry, but I don't think its suitable for human consumption since we all used our hands to touch the bread here and there. THE GERMS! AHH!)

    The Breakfast series: (lol)







    (AH! Say goodbye to the mini biscuits inside this bowl because I HAD EATEN THEM UP YESTERDAY AFTER THE SHOOT! Wahahaha!!)



    AND AFTER THE SHOOT, WE HAD SOME SELF-ENTERTAINMENT USING THE CAMERA: (Aiya, the camera is FREE for us to use mah, it will be wasted if we don't make good use of it, right?!!)

    BUT, MY PHOTOS ARE HORRIBLE! All thanks to SHREK'S "super" camera skills, and HER SMELLY SLIPPER!! (Yes, the black slipper you see in the picture belongs to her!)



    And did you see the brownish stuff in my clothing? Its Mr Bean's teddy! =D

    AND PLEASE PREPARE YOURSELF FOR THE NEXT PICTURE. I FIND IT SO TERRIBLE THAT IT CAN QUALIFY FOR THE "SINGAPORE'S 'UNGLAMEST' PICTURE" *gasp for air*



    ALL THANKS TO TRICIA! This was taken while I was in the middle of a conversation. Oh my, I think strangers who are reading this blog are gonna flee for their lives when they see this unglam photo! BUT HEY, even celebrities have their unglam-ness too! LOL

    But I don't look unglam everytime, okay! I used this picture for my presentation folio yesterday:



    Alright, I'm gonna end this entry soon, its getting longer and longer! But before I end, here's a PICTURE OF MY WORK!



    NICE DARK SHOT BO? This "model" in the picture did not even notice I am taking it! But well, I would say this is a candid shot which reveals "HUMAN EMOTIONS". It looks like there's a story behind it.. Hmm, like she's holding this rose and thinking of the prince of her dreams. The yearn for someone to be there for her.. The overflowing sadness in her eyes.. Ooh!

    TRICIA (The girl in the picture) is going to kill me if she ever see her reputation being ruined by me in here! SORRY, tricia, but your picture is being featured in siying's blog too! =p! You're famous! Hooray!

    HOLIDAYS ARE HERE!
    I think its about time I "officially" announce this very blog to my friends since its almost done. (Just needs some final touching-up, I suppose). I invested quite some effort in making this, and hope everyone will like it!

    Nevertheless, I want to share with everyone who is reading of a video I had found in youtube. A MAN BECOMING A WOMAN.I REALLY WONDER ABOUT THE VID. IS IT A SHOW? A FILM? A COMMERCIAL?






    Well, sidetrack a bit, SCHOOL HOLIDAYS ARE FINALLY HERE!
    .
    .
    .
    Finally, 3 week's break! (But not enough time for me to find a job though, which I intended to) I shall slack at home till I "shiok shiok" and sleep all I want! *MUWAHAHA*

    BUT... I still have to return back to school for collection of Rowan Atkinson's DVDs. (Since my school library has it, its WondeRfUl!) Speaking of that, I went to pick up "Keeping Mum" today.

    OKOKOK, I guess I shall talk less about him or else people will start aiming their eggs at me. Shall blog tomorrow, till here, take care!

    P/S Credit: Thanks a lot to carrot for lending me the beans.

    Happy Beaning~
    Another beany day today~ Received a sudden sms from my ebay seller informing that I am able to meet up for my Bean Teddy today instead of tomorrow!


    This is what I've got, its a very good deal! (Okay, it may not look exactly like the actual one as this one is mini size! Nevertheless, its kawaii!)


    (Photos taken by the seller beforehand)








    BACK VIEW:






    I'm now aiming for the actual size version. =) Wow, I can't believe I am so into this kinda stuff. My screensaver is Rowan's promotion of Mr Bean's Holiday, in which attracted some attention while I was away from my desk in school. (Oh no! I did not notice that my classmates were watching my screensaver.) Shrek was complaining to me that she felt like closing my laptop as she kept seeing Mr Bean walking to and fro in front of her, which was distracting. LOL.

    Well, but I love it, and still loving it =p~ Shrek was trying to psycho me in going for a school trip to Bangkok, in which she told me there are lots of Mr Bean's teddies. Hehehe, my heart is getting itchy now upon the mentioning of it...

    Ok, I'll give a second thought about it. =D~ Hehehe...

    Still under maintenace...
    Phoo~ Finally made some progress on this blog. There are still a lot of stuff yet to organise here! Thus, I only made this blog known to a few people only at the moment as its still under construction.
    Anyway, I went to collect my "Johnny English" DVD today, and how elated I was! Honestly, this show was more funnier than I expected! In fact, it's hilarious. I have never laughed so hard in my life before. (Yes, I laughed like a witch in my room while watching Rowan in action) Wow, even MR BEAN series din' make me laugh as much as Johnny English. Kudos to the scriptwriter and cast! (Especially Rowan, you did a good job!)

    And finally, I have got some latest news of Rowan. He'll be appearing in a musical as a character as Fagin! (Below is an old photograph of him which I had found)


    (Photo credit to:http://www.thestage.co.uk/news/newsstory.php/20234/atkinson-to-play-fagin-in-west-ends-oliver-/)

    Performances will start on December 12, 2008 with a press night on January 14, 2009.

    BUT ITS AT LONDON!! *cry*

    This was what he had mentioned in the article:

    Atkinson, who is best known for his roles in Blackadder and Mr Bean, said: “In the eighties I enjoyed doing a lot of West End theatre and since then have been distracted very much by Mr Bean and film-making. I had been thinking for some time about returning to the stage and the idea of the role of Fagin, which has long intrigued me - some time ago I even played the role in a school production - seemed like too good an opportunity to miss.”


    Oh Nooooo! I hope he will appear on the big screens soon instead of the stage because I will be so pitiful as his long-distance fan!

    *ELATED*
    I am so elated today, can?!
    I finally have my very own "Bean: The Movie", and ON TOP OF THAT, I had received an email from my school library telling me that my "Johnny English" DVD I had reserved some time ago is here!
    Here is the picture of the show, produced in 2003:



    I am so gonna collect it tomorrow! =D *Smiles in glee* I hope I am able to find lots more stuff and films in which Rowan had acted in. I'm definitely gonna stay a stubborn fan now!

    Monday, May 26, 2008

    After waiting for a few days, the postman finally arrived! (which means my "Mr Bean" DVDs had arrived!) However, it was such a disappointment as I felt cheated when I ripped open the package. The seller whom I had bought the DVDs from had sent me his SELF-BURNT DVDs instead of the real thing I had seen on the auction. (Prrrt~~~)
    Fortunately, I am able to watch them on my DVD player though. (But I really wish that these aren't SELF-BURNT DVDs). *cries*
    Nevertheless, I enjoyed watching it. Rowan Atkinson is really superb with his expressions, which I think, make him a successful actor cum comedian. If only I have a chance (regardless its 1 sec OR 1 min) to meet him, I will certainly praise and let him know how supportive I am as his fan. Let's just hope he is able to read my site! =)

    Too "Beanish"?
    To all internet users, friends, readers, perverts etc,

    Here is my newly self-created blog. I suggest you'd better stop laughing at my design and concentrate on reading!
    Okay, what a nice way to start the ball rolling. Duh.
    Anyway, let's put our hands together and welcome my main character for my blog... ... Mr Bean! Of course, its also a place for my tribute to Rowan Atkinson, who plays Mr Bean perfectly well. (I am now a huge fan of his!)

    Have been busy mugging, borrowing, ransacking, auctioning about Mr Bean these days. I find him such a cute and lovely character that is sooo irrisistible. (Maybe because I have a bit of his character in me by nature. Heh heh) Well, I like disturbing people like he does! =x So beware!

    I have my school's library to thank for "throwing" me into the "Mr Bean's craze". It all started when I borrowed 2 of his DVDs back, and this Rowan person got me awestruck. I find him a truly amazing man, someone who definitely deserves the crown for the Best Comedian. (If there ever is such award.)

    But of course, not only do I like him as Mr Bean, but others as well. Recently, I had borrowed "Keeping Mum","Johnny English", and others, which had Rowan starring in it. I'm still on the lookout for more of his shows such as Black Adder, Not the 9 O'clock news, etc! I believe I will still like him regardless of any role he plays.

    Honestly, I've never idolised any "ang-moh" actor(s) before. Yeah, I am not a fan of english films. (I think the amount of english shows I've ever watched in my life can be easily counted using 10 fingers. And I am not exaggerating! )
    And I am really surprised at myself for the sudden liking for Rowan Atkinson, and started watching whichever english films he had starred in. =_=

    Had re-watched "Mr Bean's Holidays" for 2 times now, and its saddening to know that Rowan is bidding goodbye to his character as Mr Bean. (He mentioned it in recent interviews)

    Rowan:

    "I think it’s highly unlikely, highly unlikely that I will do Mr. Bean again. You must never say never, but I’m not sure I can be bothered to play the character again. He may come back, or he may not, but if it was ten years time I think I might be too old, so I’d have to do it sooner rather than later.

    Okay, had spent quite some time blogging. Got to go now, kudos!
